Good grief!

Just when I think that the Murdoch hearing won't get any more interesting than the revelation Rupes frequently visited the PM through his backdoor (cue audience chortles) ...

An audience member slaps Rupert with a cream pie ...

AND WENDY DENG FLIES THROUGH THE AIR AND WHACKS THE CHAP IN THE FACE!

*Sniffs* Once again, the Murdochs can be relied on to turn serious news into entertainment.

(It's only funny because no one was hurt. But given no one was hurt, it's pretty fucking funny!)

I was listening to BBC World service in the car and noticed that the BBC announcer cut off the female MP as she began to ask the last question, in order to sum up all the "important" questions asked by male MPs...and therefore was all "Oh, what happened?" when the pie was thrown.
